I'm not familiar with a 2002 "Silver Dust Edition". I thought 1999-2002 were the carbon fiber dark grey color with aluminum wheels and chrome exhaust. The 1997 was silver with black wheels and black exhaust.

Yes, sorry, I'm new to the 2002 and the color scheme. You are correct. I was wondering how they got the carbon fiber dark gray look.

I was looking for seat fabric online and realized that there are some pretty inexpensive ways to do decals and wraps to get that kind of look. I don't know how vinyl or other decals hold up under an urethane clear coating, though.
